President of Azad Jammu and Kashmir Sardar Masood Khan has said that unabated Human Rights violations in the Indian Occupied Kashmir need immediate attention of international organizations and institutions invested in upholding universally accepted International Human Rights.

President Masood Khan said this while visiting the Capitol Hill where he met with the leadership of the Human Rights Commission of the US Congress Tom Lantos.

Speaking on the occasion, President Masood Khan described the current situation in the Indian Occupied Kashmir to the Commission’s leadership.

The President said unspeakable atrocities perpetrated against innocent civilians should cause the world community to view Indian Occupied Kashmir as a region of concern.

He explained that India is forcing illegal settlers in settlements in the occupied territory by creating Pundit and ex-Army personnel colonies.
